Islamic State claims Strasbourg shooting attack

One. Monstrous. Global. Army. All to wage war in the cause of an ideology it is criminal, bigoted, “racist”, and phobic to criticize. Immoral madness.

The suspect, who reportedly shouted “allahu akbar” before engaging in what authorities deemed an act of terror, was known to police and was being monitored by the government since 2015 due to suspected religious extremism.

The Paris prosecutor’s office also reportedly has several members of Chekatt’s family in custody, including his parents and two brothers.

ISIS says terrorist who murdered three in Strasbourg was its “soldier”.

The Islamic State (ISIS) jihadist organization on Thursday claimed responsibility for this week’s shooting attack at a Christmas market shooting in Strasbourg, France, in which three people were murdered and 11 wounded.

According to the SITE Intelligence Group, ISIS said through its Amaq propaganda news agency that the terrorist, Cherif Chekatt was an ISIS “soldier” who “carried out the operation in response to call to target citizens of the international coalition.”
